It’s like trying to breathe underwater. Just because a person has the capability and know how to breathe, they can’t breathe if not given the proper environment to do so. Yelling at them “why didn’t you take a breathe?!?!” As you watched them drown underwater is just ridiculous and naive. But every time proper engineering doesn’t happen, we see a subset of cries like this, like it’s some moral failing in the engineer. There are surely some chronically stupid engineers out there, but 99% of the time it’s a culture that has subverted the doers below the discussers and the deciders that leads to this shitshow of “how did this happen??”
